Reporting Agent Log File

The log file for the Reporting Agent contains error, warning, debugging, and informational messages that can be used for identifying problems with the Reporting Agent.

During the installation, you set the size of the file and specify the number of log files you want to keep. The default values are recommended.

The WebReports installation places the log file in the Program Files directory, Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\StruxureWareReports\StruxureWare Reporting Agent. The file name is StruxureWareReportingAgentLog.txt.

When you want to modify the log file values, you edit the Reporting Agent configuration file. The file name is SE.StruxureWareReportingAgent.exe.config. The file resides in \Program Files (x86)\Schneider Electric\StruxureWareReports\StruxureWare Reporting Agent. For more information, see Reporting Agent Configuration File .

The log file size that you set depends on how much information you plan to log in the file. The default size is recommended. Keep in mind that the larger the file size, the longer it takes to open the file. You can also set the number of log files that you want to save. When the maximum number of log files has been reached, the oldest file is deleted to create space for the new file.

Log File Levels

You can control the type and amount of information that is stored in the log file using the information levels. By default, the log file is set to Info. You can change the default value by editing SE.StruxureReportingAgent.exe.config.
